Being in contact with numerous disgruntled members in PMs, etc. They feel the same way I do. These boards have gone way downhill since last Jan

It's sad, but it's the truth

We would really love the feedback from everyone in the thread @aveline just linked.

this is what drives me crazy about people doing PFAs and similar underpaid BS

actually, the recent 25 cent ones arent THAT bad. the 15 cent ones were putrid.

It's not just you! www.usertesting.com looks down from here.

I tend to like the hits that I catch, or make a panda for.

But I'm a pretty big slacker, so, sorry.

i agree, this place is very clique-ish

 

[SweetiePuff]

I felt this way for a while especially regarding @SweetiePuff's post/like ratio

 

[thedorchannel]

Not only are these "harder" but they decreased the pay so much!!! and by harder I mean the way they load/embedded

wait, are thes the 2.00 ones?

If no one says anything about a problem that we don't see, how are we supposed to fix it?

 

[aveline]

Not to sound sentimental but I feel like everything in the "mturk world" moves faster now. We catch hits faster and they disappear faster. I don't think it's anything intentional, but you're right, we should take a moment to appreciate those that tirelessly post hits.

And an even bigger moment for those that post a review/time along with the hit.

Yeah, for the longest time I've felt like it's just the current state of mturk, but it's really not. I can go to other forums and see lots of people liking HITs. The not liking HIT posts thing seems to be something that's exclusive to us.

Im pretty sure.

If everyone that has issues would give us some feedback it that thread, it would be beneficial to get the forum moving in a more positive direction.

I'll reply with the usual disclaimer when that comes up: what looks good to you might be awful for me. For example, maybe you love writing HITs and I hate them. Or vice versa. As long as people aren't sharing HITs that are obvious scams, clearly total garbage, etc., I think we're all fine when sharing.

I agree, but there are people that post all the hits that start from yellow... I am personally filtering those hit posters too .

There's a few HITs up by Erik. Masters, with a little bit of writing and answering a question for $0.25.

Takes me a little over minute each, and I'm in no way a writer.
